Or at least so thought Tarzan of the Apes, who squatted upon a low-swinging branch in a near-by tree and looked down upon her. Just to have seen him there, lolling upon the swaying bough of the jungle-forest giant, his brown skin mottled by the brilliant equatorial sunlight which percolated through the leafy canopy of green above him, his clean-limbed body relaxed in graceful ease, his shapely head partly turned in contemplative absorption and his intelligent, gray eyes dreamily devouring the object of their devotion, you would have thought him the reincarnation of some demigod of old. You would not have guessed that in infancy he had suckled at the breast of a hideous, hairy she-ape, nor that in all his conscious past since his parents had passed away in the little cabin by the landlocked harbor at the jungle's verge, he had known no other associates than the sullen bulls and the snarling cows of the tribe of Kerchak, the great ape.

  • The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs
    I The Tarzan Series of Edgar Rice Burroughs: Lost Races and Racism in American Popular Culture James R. Nesteby Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree in Doctor of Philosophy August 1978 Approved: © 1978 JAMES RONALD NESTEBY ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ¡ ¡ in Abstract The Tarzan series of Edgar Rice Burroughs (1875-1950), beginning with the All-Story serialization in 1912 of Tarzan of the Apes (1914 book), reveals deepseated racism in the popular imagination of early twentieth-century American culture. The fictional fantasies of lost races like that ruled by La of Opar (or Atlantis) are interwoven with the realities of racism, particularly toward Afro-Americans and black Africans. In analyzing popular culture, Stith Thompson's Motif-Index of Folk-Literature (1932) and John G. Cawelti's Adventure, Mystery, and Romance (1976) are utilized for their indexing and formula concepts. The groundwork for examining explanations of American culture which occur in Burroughs' science fantasies about Tarzan is provided by Ray R. Browne, publisher of The Journal of Popular Culture and The Journal of American Culture, and by Gene Wise, author of American Historical Explanations (1973). The lost race tradition and its relationship to racism in American popular fiction is explored through the inner earth motif popularized by John Cleves Symmes' Symzonla: A Voyage of Discovery (1820) and Edgar Allan Poe's The narrative of A. Gordon Pym (1838); Burroughs frequently uses the motif in his perennially popular romances of adventure which have made Tarzan of the Apes (Lord Greystoke) an ubiquitous feature of American culture.

  • Tarzan and the Golden Lion (810.82 B972 1924A)
    What the Footprints Told 51 opposite side of the clearing, while the bulls, bris«. tling and growling, faced the intruder. “ Come,” cried Tarzan, “ do you not know me? I am Tarzan of the Apes, friend of the Mangani, son of Kala, and king of the tribe of Kerchak.” “We know you,” growled one of the old bulls; “ yesterday we saw you when you killed Gobu. Go away or we shall kill you.” “ I did not kill Gobu,” replied the ape-man. “ I found his dead body yesterday and I was following the spoor of his slayer, when I came upon you.” “ We saw you,” repeated the old bull; “ go away or we shall kill you. You are no longer the friend of the Mangani.” The ape-man stood with brows contracted in thought. It was evident that these apes really believed that they had seen him kill their fellow. What was the explanation? How could it be ac¬ counted for? Did the naked footprints of the great white man whom he had been following mean more, then, than he had guessed? Tarzan wondered. He raised his eyes and again addressed the bulls. “It was not I who killed Gobu,” he insisted. “ Many of you have known me all your lives. You know that only in fair fight, as one bull fights another, have I ever killed a Mangani. You know that, of all the jungle people, the Mangani are my best friends, and that Tarzan of the Apes is the best friend the Mangani have. How, then, could I slay one of my own people? ”.

    Northern Michigan University Summer 2018 Communication & Performance Studies 2017/2018 Newsletter Dance Minor moves to CAPS The dance program at NMU officially began in 2012 with the introduction of the dance minor. At that point in time there were four adjunct faculty teaching in the program, only one of which had a master’s degree in dance, Jill Grundstrom, assumed program director duties in fall 2013 and worked to recruit students and adjust the quality and focus of the program over time. Between the years of 2013 and 2015, Jill wrote two undergraduate proposals and created a new graduate course, all of which were approved. With the updates to the curriculum, the program evolved and fostered a close relationship with the theatre program on campus. As such, when the dance program was slated for dissolution in 2015, the theatre sub-area in CAPS expressed an interest in hosting the program to further their academic and artistic goals.
